Snack Monster

Hey there lovelies. Happy Tuesday from me to you!

I am happy to report that I got close to 9 hours of sleep last night.  I slept like a rock.  I didn’t even hear Mike get home from jamming last night.  He usually comes in to check on me too to say hello, but I don’t even remember that.  I was exhausted.  But not anymore, I am full of energy today. :mrgreen:

Mike and I hit up the gym this morning.  Basketball and weights for him; a lovely 7 miler for me.  The last 10 minutes I added a 1% incline, which I have never done before.  Holy moley, that was killer.  I need to start doing that more often, I have been missing out on an intense workout. 

I also need to add an incline seeing how it is getting nicer and warmer out, aka, I can start running outside. :)   Those trails aren’t going to be level, I know that for a fact.  My booty is going to get kicked so I better start adding in an incline pronto.

To refuel, I packed an AppleBerry VitaTop to try.

I plan on toasting the VitaTop and smearing on a thick layer from this bad boy…

Eep! Look at how full that is. That is love in a jar people.

On the side, a Jazz (I think) apple.  I packed extra Barney Butter for dipping purposes.  Apple & AB is a stellar combo in my book.

And lunch is an ode to the snack monster in me. I have been so.dang.snacky still. I know the reason deep down is because I am truly a grazer. I could eat small handfuls of things all day long and be perfectly content not eating a ‘meal’.

Being a true grazer however isn’t really realistic when you work from 8-5 and you are training for a half marathon. Instead, I’m going to try to make my meals last longer by packing a bunch of smaller things rather than one large entree. We’ll see how this goes.

Lunch includes a banana bread Larabar

Some red grapes. Which are extremely sour.

And a Laughing Cow wedge with pretzels. The pretzel picture is MIA. Oops!

This lunch should keep my mouth busy for a while. I am hoping… ;)

Are you a grazer or a three a day mealer?
